I am easy going, yet I will be blunt up front, however, having said that, I do my best to always be respectful to everyone. I have my degree(s) specializing in Psychology as I find that learning more about the brain and how we as humans react is truly fascinating. I believe that everyone deserves respect and its ok to ask for help at times- without judgement. Lets talk!
